Carers Week 2021 focuses on making caring visible and valued.
There are thousands of unpaid carers in West Dunbartonshire providing essential care and support.
It is likely you know someone supporting a family member, friend, or neighbour who lives with a disability, addiction, illness or who are frail or elderly.
In West Dunbartonshire, unpaid carers can receive support and advice from our local carers centre, Carers of West Dunbartonshire.
The organisation provides advice and support to unpaid adult carers aged 18+, from advice on benefits and grants, to support arranging replacement care.
If you, or someone you know, are a carer aged 18+ and looking for advice or support, contact Carers of West Dunbartonshire on 0141 941 1550, or visit www.carerswd.org for more information.
Help show West Dunbartonshire's unpaid carers they are visible and valued by sharing this post across your social media.
